I've just started learning English grammar. I have a book with a lot of grammars. There is a unit for present continuous and there is an exercise in which the reader should write sentences based on a picture. Here it is.
In the Key To Exercises section of the book it's stated that the answers for 3 and 7 (marked in the above picture with semitransparent red circles) are:
She is sitting on the floor and She is wearing a hat.
But I think She isn't sitting on the floor and She isn't wearing a hat are the answers.
Isn't present continuous for activities that are getting done and are not finished yet?
I think Jane has worn a hat, and she is not in the middle of wearing activity. Another alternative may be She has a hat on her head.

We use the present continuous for actions taking place now, at the moment of speaking. So, when you have to describe what somebody is doing right now, you don't have to start thinking when she put on her hat, or if she has just sat down. What is she doing now? She's sitting and wearing a hat.
